Methods: We analyzed Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 data across 204 countries to assess age-standardized incidence, prevalence, mortality, and DALYs for neonatal preterm birth from 1990 to 2019, along with EPAC and risk factors.
Results: From 1990 to 2019, EPAC for neonatal death at 0-6 days was -1.

Methods: Literature retrieval, semi-structured interview and Delphi method were conducted for initially formulation of the draft of hierarchical management system for specialist nurses. Forty-three specialist nurses and 14 nursing managers were selected for the study, using a non-randomized controlled experimental study design, and at the end of the study, the job satisfaction, job engagement, job exuberance, advice behaviors and nursing managers' overall job satisfaction of specialist nurses were compared before and after the hierarchical management.
Here, a molecular semiconductor composite was assembled by integrating atomically precise Ti-oxo clusters and phosphotungstic acid (PTA) into a cocrystal system. A molecular heterojunction was demonstrated to form between the two units, which allows the charge separation efficiency to be enhanced, resulting in a two-fold increase in photocatalytic activity for cyclohexene oxidation compared to the physically mixed composite.

Methods: A systematic bibliometric review of the literature on the risk of long-term CVD in patients with GDM between 1990 and 2022 from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) was performed by using Citespace and VOSviewer.
Results: This analysis gathered a total of 1185 articles, with 77 publications in 2019 and 119 in 2022, demonstrating a steady growth in the amount of research on the relationship between GDM and CVD in recent years.

Rationale: Preexcitation syndrome is an uncommon congenital cardiac disorder that impairs the normal cardiac conduction system. Radiofrequency ablation is one of the most effective treatments for this condition. Nevertheless, radiofrequency ablation is rare in women with preexcitation syndrome during pregnancy.

However, effective methods to construct bacterial cellulose microcapsules (BCM) are lacking, resulting in low embedding rates and poor slow-release effects. This study presents a novel and efficient BCM preparation strategy using mercerization to embed cinnamon essential oil (CEO).

Natural photosynthesis utilizes solar energy to convert water and atmospheric CO into carbohydrates through all-weather light/dark reactions based on molecule-based enzymes and coenzymes, inspiring extensive development of artificial photosynthesis. However, development of efficient artificial photosynthetic systems free of noble metals, as well as rational integration of functional units into a single system at the molecular level, remain challenging. Here we report an artificial system, the assembly system of Cu cluster and cobalt terpyridine complex, that mimics natural photosynthesis through precise integration of nanozyme complexes and ubiquinone (coenzyme Q) on Cu clusters.

Pyroxasulfone is a relatively new herbicide that is sprayed on soils to control grassy weeds and some broadleaf weeds during the cultivation of agronomic crops. However, information regarding its environmental risks to soil ecosystems is currently limited. Here, the response of soil characteristics and soil bacterial communities to pyroxasulfone exposure were evaluated.

Objective: To construct a nomogram model based on multi-slice spiral CT imaging features to predict and differentiate between duodenal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and pancreatic head neuroendocrine tumors (NENs), providing imaging evidence for clinical treatment decisions.
Methods: A retrospective collection of clinical information, pathological results, and imaging data was conducted on 115 cases of duodenal GISTs and 76 cases of pancreatic head NENs confirmed by surgical pathology at Zhongshan Hospital Fudan University from November 2013 to November 2022. Comparative analysis was performed on the tumor's maximum diameter, shortest diameter, long diameter/short diameter ratio, tumor morphology, tumor border, central position of the lesion, lesion long-axis direction, the relationship between tumor and common bile duct (CBD), duodenal side ulceration of the lesion, calcification, cystic and solid proportion within the tumor, thickened feeding arteries, tumor neovascularization, distant metastasis, and CT values during plain and enhanced scans in arterial and venous phases.

However, its herbicidal activity against various troublesome grass weeds that infest wheat fields in China and its relationships with soil pH, soil enzymes and soil bacteria are not well known. Here, the effects of applying cinmethylin on the soil surface were tested on six grass weeds, and its impacts on soil characteristics, including the soil pH, soil enzymes and bacterial community, were evaluated.
